Doctors wanting to learn more about treating the body by managing the brain recently had the opportunity to hear a talk by Robert Schneider, MD, FACC, dean of the Maharishi College of Perfect Health.
Dr. Schneider was part of a gathering of nationally recognized medical doctors in integrative medicine invited to speak and conduct workshops at an event in Grand Rapids, MI, titled "Medicine Beyond Medication: Rethinking Brain Health." He was invited to speak on the topic mind-body-heart, with other speakers addressing topics such as nutraceuticals, biofeedback, and stress management in health promotion.
Dr. Schneider spoke on how one can manage heart health by managing one's mind and brain with the Transcendental Meditation technique.
"There was a lot of respect from the other speakers, who are some of the top professionals in the field," Dr. Schneider said. "Several of them referred to the Transcendental Meditation technique and its scientifically documented effects on heart and mind health."
As part of his presentation, he spoke about the new integrative medicine MD MS program MUM is offering in conjunction with St. Martinus.
"They were each touting some particular approach, such as biofeedback, and their jaws dropped when they heard that we have built a medical school program around the notion of improving health by improving the brain."
Last summer Dr. Schneider was also invited to address Brazil's leading cardiologists at the annual interventional cardiology congress. Cardiologists in this field treat coronary heart disease with high tech interventions, such as angioplasty.
His opening address to the Congress was titled "Integrative Medicine for the Interventional Cardiologist."
